Every time we get the Outlook
Daddy sits ami reads it through.
I am not allowed to touch it
Till Mama comes and tv-ads it too.
Oh tis great to hear our daddy
Read the choice bits here ami there!
Gn-sham < hitlook, 1 admit it.
R* ullv you are treasured her««.
Excellent is what wt « all you
Surely your tidings ire the lust.
Home sweet home is my own corner
Ami I think it heats tin- rest.
M av you prosper in the future,
Outlook tis our wish for you.
Undisturbed by atlvt sc fortune
Take your stand anti be true blue.
Lately you have improved greatly,
Outlook you just oiui t to know
Others like me should com , forward Io
Keep your energy aglow.
